The Move

I just wanted to update everyone that the move went off without a hitch. Rumel went and got the truck at 7am on Saturday and everyone showed up around 9ish and we had everything packed and ready to go by 11:15. The un-loading of the truck went super fast and we were all done by 1 or so. Thanks to everyone who helped! We would have never been able to do it all without everyone's help! I'll try and get some pics of our new apartment posted as soon as we get everything organized (Its a little chaotic at the moment). We are excited to be in our new apartment and have lots more room! Once we get settled we'll be glad to host people since there will actually be space now. Hope all is well! Love you all! And THANK YOU AGAIN SO MUCH for all the help moving!

Great Weekend!!

Okay look at this! Another post before 8 months have past! Man I rock!!!
So this past weekend I was able to go up to Logan for a great (very much needed) Time Out for Women (TOFW). If you don't know what a TOFW let me tell you. It is a program that Deseret Book created where they have singers and speakers come and talk to women to help them recharge their batteries. My Grandma Spuhler is wonderful and about 3 years ago started getting tickets for the girls in our family. This year my mom and grandma weren't sure if they were going to go but then they decided that they wanted to. I'm soooooooo glad that they did. I wasn't able to make it up for the Friday session but the Saturday session was absolutely AMAZING! It was just what I needed. The theme this year is Sweet Assurance. What a wonderful topic. The speakers did a fabulous job on all of their topics. Mary Ellen Edmunds talked about her new "Life Assurance Policy." As always she was funny but was able to bring the spirit in and the sweet assurances that Christ gives us in our lives. It was a wonderful way to spend a Saturday! Thanks again Grandma for giving us the chance to attend! I highly recommend anyone that has the opportunity to go. They are always just the thing you need.

Update

Okay we have been getting a lot of slack for not updating our blog in so long. So a quick update of what has been going on in our lives since our last post. I will try to do better about keeping it updated but we'll see how that goes.

First off, we made it to our 1 year anniversary in May!! I also received my endowments in May in the Salt Lake Temple. It was a great day! My parents helped to get all of my siblings and their spouses there so we could all be in the temple together as a family. My dad had decided during a session that he wanted all 10 of his kids to be in the temple when his baby received her endowment and I am very grateful for that. Both of my grandmas were there as well. My mom was saying that she couldn't remember the last time my Grandma Seamons had done a session but she made the journey down to SLC and went through the session with us. She is an amazing lady! I definitely have wonderful Grandmothers and an amazing Mom to look up to. Rumel's parents and brother, Travis and his wife Heather also made the journey and went through the session with us. It was such a wonderful day.

Then, the last few days in June and first days of July we were able to head up to Bear Lake with my mom's side of the family. It was great to spend time with all of my cousins and siblings. We spent our time playing games on the lawn, ridding the wave runners, mini golfing and telling stories from when we were younger. And as always, we had tons and tons of yummy food. It is always a good time up at Bear Lake! Thanks Grandma Spuhler for all you do to make that happen!!!

Another major happening was on the 3rd of July. Rumel and I were able to be Sealed in the Logan Temple. It was another great day!! All of my siblings were there, as well as aunts and uncles and friends and Grandmas. Rumel's parents, grandmas, his sister Tiff and her husband Kyle, his Sister-in-law Heather, and his sister Rachelle were all able to be there as well. It was wonderful to finally have those blessings in our life and to know that we will be together forever (much to Rumel's dismay. Poor Chap :P). It great that we have so much family support! I love our families and all that they do for us!

The last couple of updates that have gone on in our lives in the past few months are that I am finally graduating college! Yay!! I finished my last class over the summer and I will be graduating in December!!!! Wahoo!! And the other is that we are moving to a different apartment. The new apartment is in Holladay. It is quite a bit bigger and has a second bathroom which is nice. It is also a more social complex so hopefully we'll be able to meet some other young couples. So that is the update in our lives of all that I can remember at the moment. I'll try to post some pics (if we have any......) in the next couple of days. But that is the run down of the happenings in the Gregersen house hold for now.


Here are a few pics from the day we got sealed. The baby Rumel is hold is our niece Tayah.
